Vincent, Do yourself a favor, and get an Equal-iz-er Brand trailer hitch. It's an anti-sway bar/load leveler all in one unit. For the money, it's the best one out there. There are a couple of other hitches that are better (Pull-Right, and Hensley Arrow), but they're much more expensive. I could give you a full page of personal experiences of why this hitch is better than chains and a swaybar (which we USED to use!). Suffice it to say that I can think of one or two situations where, if I had been using a chain and swaybar setup, I'm sure I wouldn't be here writing this right now. If you're concerned about sway, this hitch will virtually eliminate sway. I've towed my 34' Continental Supreme in 50+ mph cross winds, and the trailer never swayed one bit. Before we started using this hitch, my trailer OWNED me on the road. Now, the experience is very pleasant, actually. I usually don't even know my trailer is back there.

It will tow, but there is alot of trailer swing. That is why I need to get some towbars, or stablelizers to stop the trailer-swing. I was thinking I might use a chain on each side, and thought this might work. Do any of you have any advise to me as to where I might find the right kind of swaybar? or do you think my chain idea might work. Thanks, in advance for any and all comments, and advise. Vincent
